Here is the boys creation
Here is the girls
Well, I think you can tell by the pictures that my kids had a WONDERFUL Christmas this year. I must say that this year was by far one of the funnest. Though I have to admit I wasn't looking forward to it at all and was even quoting the Scrooge, to see how happy the kids were on Christmas morning made it all worth the stress. Both kids got exactly what they wanted....they must have been good kids this year. Taylor's favorite gift was from Santa....Kit, the American Girl Doll. Kit has been at the top of her list since the summer. She was so excited when she opened her gift from Santa. He did good!! Cole can't tell you what his favorite gift was....he says he loves them all. As a family gift, we got a wii from Adam's parents which has been a ton of fun, and very addicting. This was an amazing Christmas filled with friends, family, and tons of fun & laughter.
Well, the month of December was both uneventful yet full of events. Between, work, snow, school. snow, Christmas performances, snow, and parties....did I mention snow....we were pretty busy but didn't take many pictures. So not like me is it? Here is a recap of the Fassler Family Events.....
COLE: Well Cole has been busy with scouts, playdates, missing soccer, playing video games, and school. He is such a great kid. At his December pack meeting, he received 6 belt loops for achievements over the last few months. We were so proud of him. He loves his new scout troop, and the fact that it is so much smaller than the old troop. He misses his fellow scouts and Rosie but is still loving the scout program. He will become a bear at the end of January. He also has made some great friends and literally asks for a playdate everyday. It drives me nuts but I am glad he has such good buddies. He also had a Christmas music program along with a Tanner Dance program at school. Adam and I love that he takes everything with school so seriously...even though he hates both dance and music.
TAYLOR....the diva: Life with Taylor is always exciting and an adventure filed with fashion, make up, and looking good. Boy am I in trouble with this little princess!! She also has had a busy month. She had a music performance with Montessori at the Reid School for the Holidays. Well she sang another solo, and was amazing and confident!! You gotta love the confidence this little 4 year old has. It is amazing.
As for Adam and I...we are plugging along as usual. The holidays always make things more hectic but the kids are so excited and loving every minute of it. Happy Holidays from our family to yours!!
I know, I know....shocking isn't it? I actually can sew!! So I am not an expert seamstress but I rock at straight lines, and will at least try to do the more tricky stuff. My good friend and neighbor across the street, Ashley, has been such a patient and helpful "teacher". I have had so much fun doing this amazing Christmas Project with her. I know the suspense is killing you...what are we sewing exactly? DOLL CLOTHES!!! We have made some pretty adorable outfits, and even a tote bag for our girls to travel with their dolls and accessories. I just have to say I am pretty dang proud of myself. Taylor is getting an American Girl doll for Christmas so this will be the perfect addition to her playtime fun!! Thanks again Ashley for EVERYTHING!!!
Just an add in....I am so THANKFUL for Ashley and her wonderful family. They moved in a few months ago, and we all became great friends instantly. Our boys are BEST buds, our girls are a PERFECT match, and even her husband is pretty funny. Did I mention her little guy....what an absolute doll!! We couldn't have asked for better neighbors!! We are so lucky!!
Last night we went to the Festival of Trees...our annual trip with Grandma & Grandpa. Each year we go not only to look at the beautiful trees but to see Santa. This year was by far the best. The kids were both so excited that they were going to get to talk to Santa....they wanted to skip the trees all together. Once it was their turn Taylor went first. She jumped right up on his lap and started with her list.....it kept going, and going, and going. She even added in that he needed to bring me a sewing machine because I have been a really good mom this year. How cute is that? When Cole got on his lap his list was short but sweet. Of course at this age everything they want is more expensive and bigger so there is less. It was so much fun to get to watch my kids in this fun holiday tradition. Tis the Season!!!
